Hotels in Ma Ret

This boutique resort features contemporary Thai villas with living area, kitchen and a balcony overlooking Lamai Beach. Offering free Wi-Fi, it houses a multi-cuisine restaurant with 24-hour room service and an outdoor pool with whirlpool.

Fitted with tiled flooring, the spacious villas at Ammatara Pura feature classic and natural beige and brown interiors, decorated with influences from traditional Thai palaces and temples. Equipped with a dining area and a washing machine, they offer a flat-screen TV and a minibar. Each has a private pool.

Situated on Ko Samui, Ammatara Pura is 20 km from Samui International Airport. It is an hour by flight from Bangkok City.

Guests can play a game of table tennis or enjoy a soothing massage. The on-site tour desk can help arrange transport rentals and an airport shuttle service.

Nestled alongside an elegant family of boulders, the CoconutsPalm Restaurant sits snugly with its modern design of blended shades of white and grey, and over half-a-dozen spacious tables for groups of four. Wooden chairs with soft-cushioned seating provide the comfort necessary for proper (and well-deserved) relaxation. The fresh fruits and flowers decor and lush plants surrounding the restaurant serve as a reminder to guests that they are firmly in the tropics. The long, cream-colored curtains draped from the ceiling provide protection from any excessive sun or wind. Tasteful golden trimmings abound--the golden statues are of particular note, contrasting beautifully against the glow of an electric-blue light at the bar come evening. A wide flat-screen TV is convenient for those who choose to watch while at the bar. Amply comfortable, and with a full-panorama view of the resort’s extensive pool, it’s easy to feel cozy and refreshed here, cocktail in hand. Whether illuminated by Samui’s dazzling sun or by the speckles, well-lit ceiling, there’s a cheerful glow that, if one looks well enough, they may just notice emanating from the warm hospitality of the restaurant’s friendly staff. Thursday evenings, the restaurant hosts live entertainment. Check in to see who’s playing. Fill Your Belly Menus are available in English, Thai, or Chinese, and reveal an abundance of exotic Thai favourites, such as the tom yum and tom kha gai soups, or the equally popular pad thai and pad krapow. Ready to spoil our western guests, the chefs prepare lamb chops, pork ribs, and duck breasts, which are among the most popular dishes, and easily dissolve any nostalgia for home. On extra hot summer days, tuck into a salad, such as the chicken caesar or the goat cheese and walnuts options. Alternately, have some fried calamari, a burger or sandwich, or a bruschetta. Watch for the specials of the day, which usually include a variety of quality meats, paired with delectable sauces. Yearlong, the restaurant offers a buffet-style breakfast. A vacationer will hardly find a better way to relax on a lackadaisical afternoon than by sipping wine or savouring the cocktails selection; from the classic mojito and margarita, to the more colourful and fruity pink velvet and blue Hawaii. Fine grooming and pleasant aesthetics provide peace and comfort at the CoconutsPalm Restaurant—a little cove in this coconut grove. RECTANGULAR POOL Conveniently coupled with the CoconutsPalm restaurant is a long, resplendent, mint green-coloured pool. Guests are readily drawn to its cool waters, where they will find the necessary space to enjoy a variety of activities. Visitors may choose to soothe and stretch their sun-kissed bodies by swimming lengthy and languid laps in the water, as the pool spans approximately 12 metres. Other possible entertainment includes sipping on a fizzy cocktail by one of the pool’s ledges, thanks to the friendly staff who will refresh your glass without you even having to emerge from the water. Near these ledges, guests will find rows of smooth, cylindrical pool seats, which happen to be ideal spots to sit and soak up the sun while chatting with a friend or two. Upon gliding out of the water and cosying up with a towel, guests who have chosen poolside accommodation will have easy access to it, with paved steps leading to the room’s wooden deck. Lounging Areas The area surrounding the pool feels jungly and tropical in all the best ways, lush as it is with palms, flowers and tropical plants, as well as large, decorous ivory-coloured umbrellas (and a tarpaulin on one side) which provide the necessary shade to sprawl out under the afternoon sun. Sunbathing is an easy feat here, with vast sun beds allowing for comfortably cushioned contact with the sun. This area is dotted with little tables where vacationers can comfortably indulge on snacks or meals at their convenience. Guests will delight in charming decor, such as delicate flower vases and golden statues—some stand contemplatively, respectfully greeting visitors as they walk past, while others possess the manner of serenely obliging cherubims, balancing elegant lanterns in a peacefully attentive demeanour. At dusk, these lamps radiate a luminous glow that brings with it a touch of mystique. A unique touch to this pool is the living room-like area at one end, which invites guests to mix and mingle while sharing food, drinks and laughs. Whether it be for a revitalising morning splash, relaxation with a friend or a book, or for a reflective night-time dip, this pool is ideal for a holidaymaker ready for some well-deserved enjoyment. OCTAGONAL POOL Symmetry is a key component in aesthetic design, and this becomes apparent upon encountering the exclusive octagonal pool at CoconutsPalm resort. The lush tropical surroundings of tall coconut palms, along with the water’s sky-blue hue, and the deck’s beige-and-grey furnishings make this a splendid oasis alluring to the vacationer’s eye.

Each air-conditioned room at the Lamai Buri Resort has an en suite bathroom, safety box and minibar.

Guests can relax in the spa bath. The hotel provides laundry service and a tour desk. Cars and motorcycles are available for rent.
